I etched this jar I found at Dollar Tree and then filled it with Tazo tea bags to donate to a fundraiser. I put a really cute gift tag that said "You Warm My Heart" and then made a little tag using the teacup from the set to hang around the neck of the jar. The front of the jar says "tea" and has teapots on two sides. Too bad I'm such a goofus and didn't take a picture of it all put together!

My only tip would be to use contact paper with the coluzzle and mailing labels with punches. Overall, contact paper is easier to use on the glass, since it's can be re-positioned. Also, get your etching cream with a 50% off coupon since it's a little expensive. I say go for it--it's so much fun!
